Tom Sharpe

Tom Sharpe (oikealta nimeltään Thomas Ridley Sharpe, 30. maaliskuuta 1928 – 6. kesäkuuta 2013) oli englantilainen kirjailija. Hän kävi koulua Lancing Collegessa ja opiskeli Cambridgen yliopiston Pembroke Collegessa. Suoritettuaan sotaväen hän muutti Etelä-Afrikkaan vuonna 1951. Hänen kokemuksensa Etelä-Afrikassa toimivat pohjana romaaneille Riotous Assembly ja sen jatko-osalle Indecent Exposure.[1] Hänen kirjallisesta tuotannostaan on suomennettu vain yksi teos, Riotous Assembly (suom. Piemburgin pelottomat).

Sharpen teoksista on tehty kaksi tv-minisarjaa, Seksi ja seutukaava (Blott on the Landscape, 1985)[2] ja Porterhouse Blue (1987)[3], sekä elokuva Tapaus Wilt (1990)[4].
